I have not heard of a Revo

It looks like something I would like to buy, I have in the past bought quite a 
lot of lathes nearly all of them for metal work. The best of all was a VDF 
German made lathe.

Also had several Dean Smith & Grace lathes. All lathes seem to fascinate me, 
being a simple soul.

If anyone in the U.K. has a Revo please get in touch  and more so if you want 
to sell it

Regards

Richard

Good mill the revo an underestimated little mill I have one and in some ways is 
better than the bigger mills and with a few little modifications it can do the 
same size work as a 900 if needed.

I have a LOM 900 Standard CNC. I used it a good bit when I first bought it but 
have not turned it on in several years. I could be talked out of it if the 
price was reasonable. I also have a Revo but I want to keep it. When I retire 
again I will need something to do and I think the Revo will fit the bill.

That is O.K. Roger,

I did not ask who they were, or their addresses  . The matter as far as I am 
concerned is closed.

They do say the 900 is able to be CNC'd

​Hi Richard

I know the addresses and names of the people to whom I sold a Legacy.  It is up 
to them whether they wish to participate in this group. 

 

Do not expect me to tell you where they are and whether they are exhibition 
items, expensive toys or earning their keep. I enjoyed selling them, and have 
kept in touch with a few of them, and some are now friends.

 

I am sorry but I am not prepared to present a list to you or anyone of who has 
what. It is just the same as Tim, Mike and Curt who administer this list would 
not provide a list of members.

 

Cheers

Roger

My main thoughts on the Woodchuck is the lack of attention to detail, When the 
RHS bars were cut off, there was quite a lot of swarf left on the inside of the 
bars, It was still attached. and very sharp

Although the previous owner did not remove it, or indeed notice it ,I did. 
Mainly because I was fitting a drive motor to the Spindle.

The motor is on a frame that sits inside the RHS bars.

If one had put ones finger in there, a very nasty cut could have happened 
(Ahhhh !!)  It only took a few moments with a file to clean up all the bars.

At present I will not go into my other thoughts on the matter.

My next post will relate to all the L.o.M.'s you sold over here in the U.K. I 
only know of three, do the others just gather dust? If so they are an expensive 
toy.

​You say your well pleased with the Woodchuck but critical of the materials 
used in it's construction. I accept you may be critical and that is your right 
however remember that design is properly approaching 30 years old and it was 
Andy's original design and he was not copying or enhancing someone else's 
previous design as far as I know. Many of us have a Doctorate in hind sight, 
mine is spotting a nice female posterior at a hundred yards.

 

By the way I also would not join the navy let alone the submarine service. My 
father served 27 years in the Royal Navy, and 23 years of it was in submarines. 
If you have ever seen the German programme Das Boot 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMj0_wCn6jM 
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMj0_wCn6jM&list=PLFtKvbT8Wnl82N7B9p930vEflkdpm6zQQ>
 &list=PLFtKvbT8Wnl82N7B9p930vEflkdpm6zQQ then you get some idea of what it was 
like. When Das Boot was on the BBC TV my father was still alive and I asked him 
if he had ever been stuck on the bottom of the sea like it was depicted in Das 
Boot. He replied yes, quite a few times, and it was frightening. His job was to 
take the boat up and down upon the skipper's request.

 

He was lucky, he came through WWII but lost a lot of friends. He was also lucky 
to miss the sinking of HMS Truculent which sunk in the Thames Estuary on 12 
January 1950 after a collision with the merchant vessel Dvina. HMS Truculent 
was returning to Sheerness after a refit, 69 men lost their lives that day. He 
was the Chief Petty Officer but was drafted a few days before the accident.

 

If you are ever in Portsmouth, Hampshire UK, take a trip the Submarine Service 
Museum across the water at what was HMS Dolphin, home of the submarine service 
in Gosport.

When I joined up in the Forces, We were told not to discuss religion or 
politics.

I am well pleased with the Woodchuck other than the materials that were used in 
it's construction and the sloppy finish on some parts.

It is a simple bit of kit and does a good job as Mike has shown.

CNC is o.k. if one is turning out more than just a few items, however I believe 
the programming takes a longish time. 

I was on the SS Chusan called the happy ship, for 9 months (see web P&O ) and 
saw a sub come out of the water close by, let me just say           you would 
not get me to serve on one , I do like the fresh air and sunshine

​Hi Richard

Now for the Good News, we all die and we have not a clue what happens after 
that. Now that is my opinion but I respect others who think differently.  

 

In the meantime I will settle for a good whisky but pass on the cigar as I gave 
up smoking at 10 years of age after trying a sly smoke of a Maltese cigarette 
whilst living in Malta in 1950 -1953. 

 

We lived there because my father was in Royal Navy Submarine Service. He even 
managed to get both my brother and me each a day at sea in the submarine HMS 
Trenchant, I knew it was safe because it was my father's job to dive and 
surface the boat. Would not happen today with all the Health & Safety 
regulations.

 

Now one thing I would like is the send off that Churchill received especially 
the last railway journey. That whole style of train takes me back to my youth  
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LgjZmkf7yE(railway section of Churchill's 
funeral).

 

For a fuller version of a stylish funereal 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GC1WEdgXKEI Now if you want to understand 
Churchill's way of speaking then watch this video with Boris Johnson (ex Mayor 
of London) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLak2IzIv7U#t=219.93993

 

Churchill's wit was something for which he was noted 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rc1_A-hDsAs

 

I have a small book "The wicked wit of Winston Churchill" that has some great 
put downs. My favourite being a lady, I believe it was Lady Astor, meet 
Churchill and told him he was drunk.  He responded, Madam I may be drunk and 
you are ugly, but in the morning I will be sober!

 

If you enjoy a good read then try Churchill's History of the English Speaking 
Peoples, it comes in four volumes and is very readable and suitable for 
Americans as it was written by a man whose mother was American.

 

If none of that interests you then you can always sit down and design the next 
generation of manual Legacy and put it into production. 

 

As for me I think reading Churchill, improving my hand tool wood working skills 
and possibly CNC is the way forward if nature gives me time.

 

Cheers
Roger

I wonder if we may see a similar non cnc being built. Or something else in the 
wood working line .

Look what you have started, all this coffin malarkey, Please Have some sympathy 
for me as I have been a great great grandfather for some time.

​Hi Richard

I also signed OSA and like wise in commerce I have signed similar documents but 
where I receive Commercial in Confidence information it stays with me.

 

Only a couple of hours ago I was told something in Commercial in Confidence, 
and in the last couple months other things have come along and so "Mum's the 
word".

 

I am only doing what Winston Churchill asked!

I know about the O.S.A.s   (official secrets acts ) but as I, was also in the 
R.A.F. This little bit of secrecy is taking it too far, by the way ,I too 
served on a a couple of Signal units in Germany close to the East German 
border. We also had the British army with us but no red caps, just us.

Had a spell up on the Baltic coast also.

Before I joined up in the RAF for the second time I had a spell in the Merchant 
Navy, P&O  Liners and  Esso Tankers.

I think C .G. was in the U.S Navy

All great fun

Thanks Roger

Have you used your LOM yet???

 The answer that you gave in line "a"  is about right as far as Legacy is 
concerned , I myself would not ever buy anything from them with their practice 
of not answering Emails.

I have been running my own company for a very great time and would never have 
treated my customers like they appear to do. As I did say before, you see 
things in a different light as one of their dealers/agents

I have dealt with Yandles  and in my opinion are a great firm, be a bit 
expensive to make coffins nowadays from Elm, I have felled thousands of the 
trees before and after the Elm disease such a shame as next to Oak was my 
favorite tree.

Cheers

Richard

Perhaps Roger can help------------- been wondering if my Woodchuck was the only 
one ever imported to the U.K. and of course how many L.O.M.s are there over 
here.

Also wondering how the  sales of the C.N.C.s at the Newark U.K. woodworking 
show went -------did they sell many??

Don't seem to hear anything about the show on any of the woodworking forums.

Cheers
